Police said a witness told responding officers that a man was walking in the 9500 block of Castlefield Drive with a weapon at about 3:40 p.m. Sgt. Warren Mitchell said the man was carrying a shotgun.
The officers saw Robert Williams, 37, and told him to drop the shotgun. The officers opened fire when the man continued to walk toward them while raising the weapon, police said.

I do not know if this has been posted yet. The headline caught my eye.

Moral of the story: when the police tell you to drop your weapon, complying with that request is generally a better plan.
